flax seeds

Flax seed is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids. In fact, the
seed contains up to 60% alpha-linolenic acid, or omega-3—more than
twice that of fish oil.

Flax has a long history of use that begins in Babylon, where evidence
found in burial sites dating to about 3,000 B.C. indicates that flax
seed was used for food and fiber. In the years to follow, many early
botanists and healers would extoll the virtues of the seed, including
Hippocrates and Hildegard von Bigen.
